A special bulletin covering the latest updates on the unfolding conflict in Iran and the Middle East after the United States and Israel attacked on Saturday under Operation Epic Fury, targeting the nation’s top leaders and calling for the overthrow of its government. The attacks have sparked retaliatory strikes on the Israeli city of Tel Aviv, where 7NEWS Chief Reporter Chris Reason has been reporting live as the situation continues to shift. Reason and his team captured the moment an Iranian missile breached Israel’s air-defence system, the Iron Dome, before crashing into a building and lighting up the city with a massive explosion. He was joined by 7NEWS US correspondents Rob Scott in Washington DC and Mylee Hogan in the US Bureau, alongside 7NEWS Foreign Editor Hugh Whitfeld, providing insight and analysis on the fast‑developing international crisis. 7NEWS Aviation Editor Blake Johnson covered grounded flights and travel chaos, with Dubai airport struck and planes carrying Australians to Europe turned around, while Europe Correspondent Jacquelin Robson provided live updates on how European leaders are responding to the global conflict, and Political Editor Mark Riley in Canberra with the latest on Australia’s position.
